About 4 months of use on my fav wallet :). Shell cordovan outer and Hermann Oak inner.

That's beautiful! And hardly looks worn at all, which is impressive.

superfuture is another forum, I didn't have a pattern for the wallet but its the same design of a common Japanese riders wallet.

Looks great! How did you burnish the edges? I just bought some Shell from Claytons and sons, have read mixed reviews and ideas on how to burnish the edges or well they can be done.

Thanks guys! sorry I've been inactive for a while been spending more time on my other hobbies. rjqhall, I used gum tragacanth to burnish the edges but I've also had good success by just using water. If you sand down the edges to the right profile and put some elbowgrease with the slicker you'll get a nice natural sheen on the edges. It won't be incredibly shiny but I love the rustic yet natural look that I get with water or gum.
